Five days later

At the east gate of Gaomi County, which has always been quiet, there was a violent roar, "Boom! Rumble! Rumble! Rumble! ”。

Bai Mingzhe was wearing a white armor, a white robe, a sword pinned to his waist, facing the east, not angry and arrogant.

Li Fu was behind him on the right, and Su Jian was behind him on the left. These two lieutenants are only half a step behind.

The three of them looked at the blackened team below the east gate of Gaomi County, and their faces were full of smiles.

And Zong Zhengqing Liu Qiji, wearing Liu's crown on his head and wearing a bright red official uniform, stood quietly at the staircase, peeking at the situation below from time to time.

A scout waved his hand not far away and said in a loud voice: "General Nanzhong, an hour ago, all the soldiers of Youbeiping led by Captain Luo Jin have arrived at the designated position!" The three armies of the Southern Zhong Army have been assembled! ”

Bai Mingzhe raised his right hand and said lightly: "Got it!"

He looked at the black-pressed soldiers below, and had a feeling that he would be at the top.

Because Ma Ning's attack on Gaomi County led to the bankruptcy of the original plan to cut off Jimo and try to make him self-defeating, he arranged all the reinforcements around Gaomi County.

On October 18, 3,000 infantry from the Yan Kingdom arrived in Gaomi County and stationed at the south gate of Gaomi County.

On October 19, the soldiers of the two counties of Liaodong and Liaoxi all arrived and were stationed at the north gate of Gaomi County!

Today, October 20, the 5,000 infantry of Youbeiping, under the leadership of Captain Luo Jindi, finally arrived. Because there were people stationed in the north and south, he arranged people at the east gate of Gaomi County!

So far, the 18,000 soldiers of the Nanzhong Army have all arrived!

Bai Mingzhe turned around and gave an order, "The soldiers have worked the road, pass on the general's order, send down the pigs and mutton purchased these days, and the head battalions of the army will immediately prepare meat!" Tonight, on behalf of Your Majesty, I would like to reward the three armies! ”

Li Fu and Su Jian gave up their hands at the same time, "No! ”

Bai Mingzhe looked at Liu Qiji, who was in a daze on the side, and called softly, "Zong Zhengqing!" ”

Liu Qiji followed the voice and said with a smile: "General Nanzhong!"

"The three armies have arrived! I heard that His Majesty ordered Zong Zhengqing to build a worship platform, and you can start. ”

Liu Qiji laughed and stroked his beard, "Okay! I have already chosen the construction site, at the south gate of Gaomi! Tomorrow, after the sacrifice to heaven and earth, the construction can begin. ”

Bai Mingzhe bowed his hand and said politely: "It's troublesome Zong Zhengqing."

"The general is gracious."

After the politeness, Bai Mingzhe ordered to the right Beiping soldiers below: "The whole army is camped on the spot!" Rest and reorganize! ”

Luo Jin, who was not far away, took the arrow and said loudly: "No!"

……

Jimo City, Kangwang Palace

Ma Ning had long lost his original composure, he pushed away the eunuch who was blocking him, ignored the guards, panicked and staggered into King Kang's study, and screamed: "The king is not good!" I just received news from the scouts, and an hour ago, a large number of troops appeared at the east gate of Gaomi City! It is said that the banners of this group of people are 'Luo' and 'Right Beiping'! ”

Liu Ji put the bamboo slip in his hand on the desk, frowned, waved his hand, and asked the guards who rushed in to retreat, and then blamed: "What are you panicking about?" With this king here, he doesn't dare to attack the city! Thou shalt guard the city, and examine those who come in and out. If there is a person with a non-Jiaodong accent, he will be detained directly and put in prison! ”

"The widow has already let people inform the surrounding counties and counties, and they are already trying to destroy the evidence! As long as it drags on for five days, all the big and small things you did before will basically be erased! ”

Liu Ji squinted his eyes, looked Ma Ning up and down, dragged his long voice, and said: "As for the matter of you leading troops to besiege Taiyuan Jun, the widow has also found the person who bears the blame, and when the time comes, you will just bite to death, it is that person who lied about the military situation and lied that the descendants of the tyrannical Qin occupied Gaomi County!" There is no evidence, and someone is responsible, even if the lieutenant Qing finds out about you, at most he will report to His Majesty an unknown crime. ”

Ma Ning was still a little worried, "But ......"

"No, but!" Liu Ji's tone was tough, his face was gloomy, and there was no doubt, "As long as you do what this king says, even if the ten emperor brothers want to destroy the three clans of you, this king will come forward to protect it!" ”

I don't know why, hearing King Kang say this, Ma Ning suddenly lost confidence in his heart, but because this was the last straw, he had to surrender his hand and ask, "King, because of the defeat of the siege before, there are only 3,200 defenders in my hands at present." According to the scout's report, there are at least 10,000 people on the other side, can the king hand over all the Jiaodong armor soldiers to his subordinates for command? ”

"Hmph, the idea of beating the armor in the hands of the widow!" Liu Ji snorted coldly, "These three thousand armor soldiers are the hard work of widows for many years. This king spent tens of millions of dollars on them! Once on the battlefield, the armor soldiers are all one against five! ”

Ma Ning also knew that this request was a bit abrupt, so he lowered his head in shame and scratched the back of his head, "Isn't my subordinate worried that Taiyuan Jun will come to cut it first and then play it." If he breaks through Jimo City, takes me and the king and beheads him, and then reports to Chang'an, how is this good? ”

Although one of the two is a 2,000-stone county guard, and the other is a local prince and king, the power is monstrous, but after they die, who will care so much?

Even if the other princes and kings have opinions, they will not say it explicitly! This is a general with tens of thousands of troops, who will offend if he has nothing to do?

As for Liu Che, it's too late for him to be happy!

How could such a good opportunity to cut the feudal domain be easily missed? As for not reporting the matter of Chang'an's beheading of the princes and kings...... Verbal criticism and education, and then three more self-punishment cups.

His Majesty has asked Bai Mingzhe to lead an army of more than 10,000 people, and anyone with a discerning eye can see that in less than ten years, this will be a general who resists the Huns and gives an order to pay for his life?

It's simply impossible, okay!

Especially when he besieged the city tenfold and played a big defeat, he established the reputation of Taiyuan Jun who is good at leading troops, and it is too late for His Majesty to appreciate it!

Liu Ji heard Ma Ning's words, and after being silent for a while, he took out a tiger talisman from his arms, handed it over, and said loudly: "It's not unreasonable for you to worry. This is the Jiaodong Jiashi's troop transfer tiger talisman, so I'll hand it over to you for safekeeping! ”

Worried that his henchmen would die, he reminded: "These three thousand armor soldiers are good at fighting, not good at defending the city, and you can grab strong men from Jimo City." If the city is broken, let them take action! ”

After a pause, worried about his own safety, he said again: "Although in addition to these three thousand armor soldiers, King Kang Palace also has a thousand standing forces. But for the sake of the king's safety, you can only mobilize 2,500 warriors! ”

Ma Ning held the tiger talisman in his hand and said with a smile: "No!"

With 2,500 armorers as his back, he felt much safer.

Liu Ji saw that Ma Ning was too excited, and sneered, "You look very happy, this time it's better to be calm and calm, don't let the soldiers die again!" ”

"Don't worry, the king! Jimo City has a large number of strong men and a well-equipped arsenal, so it could have formed an additional army with 5,000 soldiers. Now coupled with the Jiaodong armor carefully cultivated by the king, there are as many as 10,000 soldiers guarding the city. Ma Ning laughed loudly, "Although the combat effectiveness of the Zhuangding defenders is low, it is enough to defend the city!" That kid doesn't have 20,000 people, and he will definitely not be able to take Jimo! ”

Liu Ji knelt and sat down, and said with a smile: "How do you know that he doesn't have 20,000 people?"

"Huh?" Ma Ning was stunned.

Liu Ji shook his head in disappointment, picked up the bamboo slip he had just read, and threw it away, "Read it carefully!" ”

"This king is really curious, who do you give money to every year? Why is there no one in Chang'an? ”

"Whoa!"

Ma Ning hurriedly took the bamboo slip, looked at Liu Ji suspiciously, and finally set his eyes on the bamboo slip.

As soon as he looked at the column, his pupils shrank suddenly, "Impossible! His Majesty canonized him as the General of the Southern Massachusetts? ”

Liu Ji waved his hand in disgust, "Don't be surprised, keep watching!" ”

Ma Ning held his breath and continued to read, and after seeing the third column, he was in a cold sweat, and he was directly frightened.

He couldn't hold back again, and said in a lost voice: "Ten thousand...... 18,000 people!! Your Majesty is crazy! ”

Liu Che's hand directly blindfolded him.

Bai Mingzhe actually has 18,000 soldiers from the border who have been tempered by the war many times!

How can this be fought?

Originally, he planned to defend a wave, and when he was tired on the other side, he would raid with a surprise soldier and copy his high-density nest.

Now it's okay, he can't help but ask himself: Can his 10,000 people make the other party tired?

Ma Ning cried with a sad face and wailed, "King, is this news true?" ”

Liu Ji shook his head speechlessly, "This is the official who was placed in Chang'an when this king was the prince, and sent someone to send it." ”

"Frightened !!" Ma Ning wailed, "Why didn't Dr. Zhong send someone to deliver the letter?" Could it be that he forgot all these years of worship? ”

"Oh, it turns out that your backer in Chang'an is a middle doctor." Liu Ji had a strange expression.

"Is there anything wrong with this, my lord?"

"There's nothing wrong with it, he's thinking about it behind closed doors at home now."

Ma Ning: "???"

"This king heard that the ten imperial brothers held a court meeting a few days ago, and the middle doctor was disgusted by the imperial brother because he failed to debate with Taiyuan Jun. Now Lang Zhongling asked Dr. Zhong to think about it behind closed doors at home, and he was not allowed to go out for three months. ”

Ma Ningqi's teeth were about to crush, "It's Taiyuan-kun again!" I'm guilty of it? ”

He was so angry that he couldn't wait to find something to bite and vent his pain.

"Everything the king should have told has been told, and the rest is up to you! Remember, five days, be sure to stick to five days! Liu Ji stretched out five fingers and shook them.

Ma Ning's expression was firm, "Don't worry, the king, your subordinates will definitely complete the task of defending the city!" ”

"Well, you will leave in a while, take someone to Guangfang's house first, and take a look at it!" A hint of murderous intent flashed in Liu Ji's eyes, "Take a token from his family, and then let the trusted businessman sneak into Gaomi City and find a way to deliver it to Guangfang!" ”

Ma Ning gasped, "King, is it difficult to ......"

Liu Ji took down a scroll of bamboo slips from the bookshelf again, and didn't say much, just muttered, "He knows too much." ”

"Subordinates understood! Just do it! ”

Liu Ji was silent this time and didn't say anything.

Ma Ning understood and retreated directly, he now needs to do something to kill his mouth.
